Memcached can't tell the difference between the standard and the "mobile" version of my client's WordPress blog, which is using the Jetpack plugin's mobile version thingy.

I've not Googled it yet, but there must be a way to work that puppy out. What it means is that if a person uses a mobile, and that's the page that Memcached caches, that's the version everyone else sees until it expires!

Right now my client's homepage is looking decidedly CRAP on a desktop!!!

Depends on how memcached is used and with what scripts as how Wordpress tells memcached to cache is how it will, memcached knows nothing other to than run it's server. So it depends on Wordpress/wordpress plugin's configuration of how it uses memcached. So you need to look at your wordpress plugin's configuration

Are you using WPFFPC plugin for memcached ? Could be related to wpffpc.conf setting for $memcached_key which might need changing

If you disable APC, then yes no object caching and no php opcode caching. As to amount of memory really depends on what you install/plugins and how you have wordpress setup. For instance for me default vBulletin 4 install would need minimum of 96MB for APC per vB4 install instance. But APC does help alot of php performance so if you app needs more APC memory, better to upgrade memory :)﻿

I'm guessing they don't exist, but I have been looking for some bash scripts (or similar) that would enable me to automate WordPress provisioning on Centmin. At the moment it's not hard, but it's time-intensive, and repetitious.

I know very little about shell scripts and, while I'm sure I could work it out, it would be awesome to be able to fill out a form, hit "go" and it would leverate wp-cli and the shell to auto-deploy my specific preferred WordPress setup (including default plugins and options).

I think going as far as a hosting control panel is too much for my needs, and unnecessary code to be running on the box. I just want the minimum to be able to rapidly deploy client sites. No email needed. Maybe SFTP accounts per client would be nice.

Is this something that is hard, or would a talented script monkey be able to do this easily??

No idea if kloxo works with centmin mod. I suspect it doesn't so wouldn't recommend it. As to wordpress can be tricky if you want to account for all possible scenarios of deployment of wordpress especially if it's to an existing site which has been setup and has other already configured and in use scripts which have their own nginx rewrite rules already in place in the domain's Nginx conf file.

Can be done, but time consuming to code and write up if you're testing for every possible deployment scenario. I know I don't have much free time as busy with client work (server/hardware optimisation consulting work) :)﻿

Hey mate. To be honest, while it was a bit rude, I found it equally funny. I don't think I'm encouraging it; at least the people who follow me here are smart enough folk not to think I'm doing that, or to go and do something similar because I've linked to this.﻿

Currently sick with the flu, so haven't been around much :o As to VVV, honestly for software that I haven't had any personal experience with, the chances are much slimmer - afterall anything I add to Centmin Mod has to be properly tested by me before release. This would involve me fully understanding the software incorporated.

Chances are higher if you or folks wanting such software added, actually do outline how the software is used, how you intend to you use it and how you normally go about installing it and using (manually).

Remember, I only work on Centmin Mod in my free time (usually ends up being once a week on Sunday these days).﻿

The installation of Wordpress is a little tricky (I think) with the caching and pagespeed in the latest beta. Is it possible to have an example vhost conf file done for the more typical scenario where WP is installed into a domain's root??

I currently am stuck where I can't get permalinks to work in WordPress for a domain that's installed into the root...

+Alister Cameron reason why i have 2 includes within location / root is if you have other web apps instead i.e domain.com/vbulletin off web root, there may be conflicts if those 2 includes are outside location /, but if only web app is wordpress on vhost then having 2 includes above location / root should be fine.﻿

I've installed the latest beta on a t1.micro instance on AWS EC2. Was a very slow compile, but it got there!

All's been going well with setup but I can't get php to speak to MariaDB. phpMyAdmin can't connect (although there's no elegant message telling me so), and nor can WordPress, where the setup screen informs me it can't connect to MySQL.

My Linux (let alone CentOs) sysadmin skills are very lacking, and so I'm at a bit of a loss to know how to systematically troubleshoot this one. I don't think it has anything to do with the way an Amazon instance works, but I may be wrong.

Whatever the case, I'd love some pointers on what I need to do to diagnose.

Incidentally I've got phpMyAdmin running off the default website Nginx uses, and I've got the WordPress install in the root of a vhost I setup in the standard location for those. I've followed all the instructions.

Now, finally, I'm aware MariaDB had a connection issue to do with IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, but I'm running 5.5.31 which I'm led to believe has that problem fixed??

+Alister Cameron Just an update to your mysql/mysqli mysql.sock issue, I have found the problem when running into MySQL Error: 2002 no such directory found error for connecting to mysql via mysqlnd driver. It seems mysqlnd native driver ignores php configure line --with-mysql-sock if specific path is not set i.e. --with-mysql-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. So either i hard code this into php configuration or add it to php ini directory as a file at /root/centminmod/php.d/mysqlsocket.ini so the mysqlnd mysql and mysqli mysql.sock are picked up on the fly. This will be properly fixed in next beta release due out sometime today :)﻿
